Be pure, to acquire the skill!

    Children are said to have purity in mind and to be equal to God. They expect much to learn for the first time from us and the environment they live in. If, we, adults, learn anything, it is different from the learning by the children. Adults though learn the activity or the subject as new, while learning they have in their memory all those unnecessary incoming thoughts from their earlier experience that they had with all the related activities/subjects/topics. Then their learning becomes impure, incomplete and not easier too. So, have your mind clear and pure in learning skills without having/believing in your other thoughts. Then you shall learn the skills as expected by the authourities concerned in their pure form. 

Work – but with informed conditions & consents!

     When you do a work for others, first ask them whether they actually need your working with them or not, and whether they will accept your work and its end products. And then inform them about your skills and conditions, get their specifications and expectations out of your work. Only you and those 'others' agree mutually for the work. Next, you should get the consent from them for your work. Only after all these you should proceed to work for them. This avoids any dispute or frustration arising on both sides. Instead of these, if you do any work on your own for others without discussing with them, it is needless to say that you should also expect rejection from their side and be prepared to feel sorrow and to have frustration out of it – apart from wasting your precious time.
